Cold War Kids - We Used To Vacation Video

The first EP from Cold War Kids ''We Used To Vacation' is set for release on November 27th via V2 recordings. Their debut album 'Robbers and Cowards' is due for UK release Feb 5th and will be accompanied by a tour with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.

Cold War Kids. Reagan babies, missile fears, and international blues. A band who on the evidence of a handful of live shows in the UK earlier this year, stand out sxsw performances and more recently, seem to effortlessly produce music that manages to be highly emotive and both ear-splittingly loud and vast, yet equally intimate and blissful, with the sweetest of harmonies.

Live, Cold War Kids create a chaotic grove that recalls the first Beta Band EP, Billie Holiday, Dylan and the Velvet Underground. Lyrically, they conjure up bizarre and fragile tales of robbery, complex relationships, political and religious allegories. Sepia tinged imagery of fishing trips, the front page of the New York Times and Vietnam.
